Assassin's Creed has been one of my favourite franchises of all time, and the changes they have made in the last few entries are wonderful in almost every way. While there were a few things in Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Odyssey that I didn't enjoy, some of those issues have been rectified in what I like to call the "New Era" of Assassin's Creed titles. From start to finish, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a fantastic experience, punctuated by dozens of highs, and very few lows. Let's dive in!

Now I’m fixing that! Let’s talk about Immortals Fenyx Rising. What would happen if Breath of the Wild and Kid Icarus had a baby? It might be that the child would be Immortals Fenyx Rising.

Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #244: Online With Final Fantasy
I had never played a Final Fantasy online game before. I didn’t think they’d be for me nor do I want to pay a charge every month. However when I found out that there was a free trial for Final Fantasy 14 on the Playstation 4, I decided it was finally time to try an FF online game. So what do I think? Well… Over the weekend, I’ve been playing Final Fantasy 14’s free trial. And… Actually I like it.…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #243: Revisiting Kingdom Hearts 2
In what feels like a lifetime ago, but really wasn’t too long ago, I bought the Kingdom Hearts: Story So Far collection. I had to have it. I beat Kingdom Hearts 3, loved it, and felt like I wanted to replay the other games. And off and on I have been playing them some. Recently, I got back to playing Kingdom Hearts 2. I’m not very far yet but I wanted to get all nostalgic about the game and talk…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #242: Finding Andromeda
Recently, I checked out the Mass Effect Andromeda demo. I had never played this Mass Effect before. I didn’t know at first that I had just downloaded the whole game and I had a ten hour trial to check it out! And so I played the game for about 7 hours and I have some thoughts on Mass Effect Andromeda! I have played the first couple of Mass Effect games. I liked the first one more because it was much…
Read MoreGenshin Impact First Impressions
Genshin Impact is a free-to-play game that is now out on the Playstation 4, PC, and mobile. I downloaded it for the PS4 and I’ve played it a little bit. Here are my first impression of Genshin Impact for the PS4! Genshin Impact is free to download and play. I was very curious to see if this game is any good. Unlike many free-to-play games, Genshin Impact is a single player game, although I hear that online co-op does open…
Read MoreTony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 Review
The remake of the first two Tony Hawk Pro Skater games — recently released on Xbox One and PS4 — continues the recent Activision trend of stellar updates of classic games from the 1990s. This package, more than any remake or remaster in recent memory, speaks almost directly to me. The original games were among my favorites on the original PlayStation. Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 perfectly captures the memories and feelings of playing the originals. The visuals are…
Read MoreImmortals: Fenyx Rising Shown At the Ubisoft Forward Event
Immortals: Fenyx Rising was shown at the Ubisoft Forward event. Check out some footage for the game below. We have some thoughts on it! Immortals: Fenyx Rising looks like Breath of the Wild had a bady with Greek Myth (or Assassin’s Creed Odyssey?). The game looks really good! Immortals, much like Breath of the Wild, will have a huge open world that players can explore from the get-go. The Greek myth inclusion: from Zeus to Medusa and more makes this…
